Gypsies seeking winter Quarters.

From the LIST to the 10Th of November
the great movement of the American gyp-
sizes from their wandering merripen, or
life, upon the road to winter quarters Is
in full progress. Some begin to fly from
the frosty days month earlier. Others
wait with logged sort Of clinging to the
tent homes until fairly driven from them
by bowling December storms. Last year
I was a guest with a band near Mount
Tom, in Maine, as late as Thanksgiving
day, and until it was so rigorous in that
region that every time we got water from
the little stream hard by, we were COM
PEELED to break the ice upon it. FIRE.
quently the larger bands divide into sew
eral smaller portions. These gradually
work their way back from extreme north
ern points to their winter homes in cities
and towns, or to where the climate is
tolerable for little longer stay in their
loved out of door existence.
Their far annual pilgrimages are rs
markable. have visited gypsy bands il,
New Brunswick whose members owned
property in Central Texas. Beginning in
February they travelled leisurely in the
finest of wagons, and with droves of the
finest horses, trading, selling, dickering,
dukkering telling fortunesl along, as the
season advanced, fairly coming with the
spring from the south, until June found
them, like many more aristocratic wan
| derer, along the shores OF the ST. Croix.
During September they would traverse
the New England states. In October they
were across New York and Pennsylvania
and well into Kentucky; and before the
Christmastide had come, they were back
at their own home for a two months
putter and preparation for the next
February departure, perhaps across Mis-
souri, and Iowa, away into the witching
dingles of the Sank River valley of Mime

amount to 5000 miles, an almost incom-

A review by Bonfiree, TIicht.

A little before noon on the 9TH of April,
1865, Gen. Grant, with his staff, rode into
the little village of Farmyille, on the
south side of the Appomattox river, a
town which will be memorable in history
as the place in which he opened the cor
respondenee with Lee which led to the
surrender of the Army OF Northern Vir-
ginia.
He drew up in front of the village hotel,
dismounted and established headquarters
on its broad piazza. News came in that
Crook was fighting large odds with his
cavalry on the north side of the river, and
I was directed to go to his front and see
what was necessary to be done to assist
him. I found that he was being driven
back and the enemy was making "a bold
stand north of the river. Humphreys
was also on the north side, isolated from
the rest of our infantry, confronted by q
large portion OF Lees army, and having
some very heavy fighting. On my return
to general headquarters that night,
Wright's corps was ordered to cross the
river and move rapidly to the support OF
our troops there. Notwithstanding their
long march that day, the men sprang to
their feet with a spirit that made every
one marvel at their pluck, and came
swinging through the main street of the
village with step that seemed as elastic
as on the first day of their toiisome tramp.
1t was now dark, but they spied the gen.
eral-in-chief watching them with evident
pride from the piazza of the hotel.
Then was witnessed one of the most in
spring scenes of the campaign, Bonfires
were lighted on the sides of the street,
the men seized straw and pine knots, and
improvised torches. Cheers arose from
throats already hoarse with shouts of vic
tory, bands played, banners waved, arms
were tossed high in air and caught agBin.
The night march had become grand re-
view, with Grant as the reviewing officer.

rooms, where his wife, little old He
